- AFM Disable - AFM / DFM is the #1 killer of Chevrolet & GMC Truck engines. Luckily there is an alternate solution, to what dealerships recommend, when it comes to AFM engine failure. Saving you approximately $2,400 - $3,600 or more in un-necesssary repairs. There is no partial-fix once the first sign of failure presents itself. There is only the opportunity to disable the AFM system before the first sign of failure appears. Engine failure can occur most anytime. Customers report failure occurs at less than 1k, 30k, 70k or over 100k miles depending on the model year of the vehicle and maintenance practices.

The 5.3 uses a quart of oil every 1000 miles ever since it was new.
